Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Drums, Bass Guitar, Harmonica, Ukulele, Music, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar

I've been teaching guitar for about 15 years, voice for 10, drums and harmonica for 6 and classical guitar for the last 4.

For beginning students, my methods are centered around melody in the form of easy to play songs and tunes, and developing an understanding for basic theory through rudimentary scales and chord construction. More advanced students are entreated to delve more deeply into melodic playing and advanced scale work through modal play, advanced chordal technique, "tips and tricks for fancy licks", and pointers for breaking down, and understanding the songs you want to play.

My choices in books and other resources for the student are based primarily on the students' individual goals, needs, and interests.

I have had many experiences in my pursuit of Music throughout the Eastern Seaboard. I have had professional singing experiences as well in a few varied genres, include Gospel, Spiritual and Classical musics. My professional training in Education has afforded me the luxury of teaching in a variety of educational settings ranging from Pre-School to Adult Continuing Education. To culminate my work experiences in Therapeutic Music as both a Recreation Specialist and Music Therapist, I completed one year of study at New York University and have plans to one day finish a program I started there. I have also maintained my skill at performance on Woodwinds and Classical guitar, which I enjoy especially having students to prepare for.
